work and media






As much as social media can be very entertaining, it can also be very distracting. According to the Huffington Post in Canada, most businesses are now restricting Facebook use to their employees. This wouldn’t be a big deal until in November 2011, a survey of 2,800 employed college students and graduate students showed that 56% of respondents would refuse to work at a company that bans social media. Half of the sample size did have a problem with this and although this doesn’t necessarily represent our actual population size, it does give us an idea of how dependent we are becoming on social media.
